I am working on dropping my 1978 F150 and I read that you can have your I-Beam bent to achieve this. Has anyone done this and where did you have them bent at? Also if there is anyone there that hasn;t done this but knows a place that does this please let me know. Thanks guys!

I wonder if you can buy aftermarket beams already bent?

They are out there, but they are like $800! I would like to spend that $800 on my body work and interior work. I found a couple of ways to lower the truck by altering the current suspension. I would be able to get 4-5 inches so I am probably going to go that route.

Sounds like a good plan. I tried poking around the phone book, but couldn't find anything specific. I'm sure someone locally could do it.
